The research project aims to develop an approach based on resource management in 5G/6G network slicing to meet the performance requirements of remote surgeries that involve surgeons and patients connected remotely through a highly reliable and efficient network. Remote surgery’s relevance is because it allows low-income patients in vulnerable communities to access complex medical procedures […]

Ce projet de recherche vise le développement de nouvelles connaissances et de nouvelles données de référence adaptées au secteur de l’immobilier institutionnel au Québec pour valoriser les pratiques de gestion en bâtiment durable afin de stimuler leur transmission et leur adoption. Cette recherche contribue à la mission du partenaire, l’Association des gestionnaires de parcs immobiliers […]

Ce projet de recherche vise à évaluer l’effet de la valorisation agricole des différents types de MRF sur l’amélioration de la santé globale des sols. En effet, l’impact de l’apport de MRF sur la régénération de la MO du sol est bien connu. Cependant, la capacité de ses produits à créer des fractions organiques stables […]

The race to the Internet of things (IoT) paradigm is fueled by leading technological enterprises and governmental institutions for a fast transition into the Fourth Industrial Revolution where machines, sensors and actuators can communicate and process data to enable a more efficient production cycle. To pave the way for the advance in IoT, next-generation wireless […]

The proposed research project concerns the development of optimization tools and sizing methodologies used to assess optimal structural airframe configurations and aerodynamic lines for given business cases. A PDF intern will be in charge of proposing improved optimization strategies, mainly related to composite material, and of adding specific capabilities inside the internally developed sizing tool […]

The integration of new technologies, on both supply and demand sides, with the existing energy infrastructure, is always a challenging ta sk. First, the a mount of energy demand must be predicted to manage the needs of deploying in the future. Second, the predicted energy must be introduced to a simulation tool (e.g., PTDC) to […]

La majorité des personnes atteintes de maladies chroniques souhaite participer activement dans la prise de décision concernant leur santé notamment en étant mieux informée. Un portail Web en santé peut être une des solutions. Ce projet a pour objectif de mieux connaître les utilisateurs d’un tel portail afin de l’adapter et de répondre pleinement aux […]

Les agents conversationnels ont révolutionné la manière d’interagir avec les fournisseurs de service, mais re-quièrent d’être correctement entraînés par rapport au domaine d’application visé. L’outil Olivo développé par Koïos Intelligence vise à offrir une expérience interactive, guidant l’utilisateur au travers des processus de pré-vente, de vente et d’après-vente pour tes les types d’assurances. Son amélioration […]

Small plastic particles (microplastics and nanoplastics) are found in oceans, lakes, and rivers. Their effects on organisms and human beings are still unknown. Microplastics and nanoplastics found in the environment will be weathered, coated, and/or fragmented. Yet, the effects of these modifications on microplastic and nanoplastic removal during water treatment are yet to be thoroughly […]

This project will use speculative design methodologies to create wearable technologies (wearables mounted with sensors that can be worn), capable of sending, receiving, and sharing sensory information across differently-abled human bodies. As the participants with different body structures, mobility, and agility move in space wearing aforementioned wearable technologies, proprioceptive information (sense of balance and body […]

Evidence summaries, combined results from different primary studies, are critical for the development of health policy and clinical practice guidelines. However, traditional systematic review methods tend to be long and expensive. Rapid reviews (RRs) and living systematic reviews (LSRs) have been created to address the need to support these limitations. Although these methods streamline the […]

My research examines the significance of opposition to large-scale land deals for electoral democracy and citizenship in Senegal. Since 2007, there has been a dramatic surge in land acquisitions in the Global South. These projects, because they often encroach on community farmland and pastures, can profoundly damage rural livelihoods. In Senegal, aggrieved populations across the […]
